July 24. Mark the date on your calendar.In just three days time, the much awaited song promo from Illayathalapathy’s Puli will be unveiled!

That’s right! The song promo of a romantic number called Yendi Yendi from Puli will be out this Friday. The song has been sung none other than Vijay and talented Shruti Haasan herself. Music composer Devi Sri Prasad has scored music for Puli, which also stars Sridevi, Hansika and Kiccha Sudeep in lead roles. While the audio launch is expected to take place on August 2, the makers have decided to reveal this song promo in order to build great buzz around the music.

The trailer of Puli is also said to be launched along with its music on August 2, whereas the film has been slated to hit the big screens on September 17. While there is a lot of expectations from Vijay- Shruti crooned number, I, as a fan hope that there a few visuals from the song too in the promo other than recording room footage of the two stars jamming together. The last number which Vijay sung in AR Murugadoss’ Kaththi, Selfie Pulla, was huge hit. Will Vijay manage to repeat Selfie Pulla magic with Yendi Yendi? The answer awaits on July 24.

Sad news for Simbu fans as his much delayed entertainer will not see the light this weekend as scheduled

Bad luck seems to be following Simbu and his much delayed flick Vaalu. After being postponed for over three years, the Simbu-Hansika starrer was supposed to release on July 17. But an unexpected court case has put the release on hold once again.

Simbu’s father T Rajendar went on to sort out the distribution issues of the film and had planned to release the film on July 17 clashing with Maari. But just a week before the release, Magnum Rays, a production house, came forward claiming their rights on film’s release. In a statement, Magnum Rays, claimed,” In 2013, the film’s distribution rights were sold to us by NIC Arts Chakaravarthy for Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam languages. Now, the film is being released under Simbu Cine Arts owned by T Rajendar bypassing our old agreement.”

Based on Magnum Rays’ petition, court had decided to put a stay on film’s release. After a lengthy court session today, where Simbu and T Rajendar tried unsuccessfully to dismiss the claims of Magnum Rays, the court has decided to continue the stay on Vaalu, which means the film will not release on July 17 along side Dhanush’s Maari.

This news comes off as a huge setback to Simbu and his fans, who were really hoping and praying that Vaalu will hit the screens this weekend.

Despite of interim stay on the film, the actor has promised that the film will release as scheduled

After waiting in the wings for nearly three years, facing numerous post production and distribution issues, Simbu’s Vaalu was finally slated to release on July 17. Just when fans thought all problems are over for Vaalu, Madras High Court has slapped an interim stay on the film.

Few months back T Rajendar, Simbu’s father, had put an end to release troubles of Vaalu by acquiring its distribution rights. Now Magnum Rays, a production house, has come forward claiming their rights on film’s release. In a statement, Magnum Rays, claimed,” In 2013, the film’s distribution rights were sold to us by NIC Arts Chakaravarthy for Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam languages. Now, the film is being released under Simbu Cine Arts owned by T Rajendar bypassing our old agreement.”

Reacting to this interim stay Simbu gave a lengthy statement which showed his frustration as well as confidence about the release. ” Everybody know my father had acquired the rights to release the film Vaalu quite sometime back. His decision was not only on the basis of being my father but also as a reputed director producer. He loved the film and hence this decision. We are all set to release the film on mid of this month. We sorted out various issues of the film one by one until we came across this other party claiming the release rights for this film too. I had done my duty as an actor and eager, as eager as my fans to see the film with my beloved fans. Reasons beyond my strength and hidden forces against the film as well as me are in full process of sabotaging the release on the scheduled date. The mutual bonding I share with my fans, the blessings and the wishes of my well wishers and the support of media gives me immense strength in this hour. I am bundle of confidence and with that confidence, and the divine presence of the almighty, the release of the film will happen as scheduled. I believe in the phrase “When the going gets tough, the tough gets going” “.

With the epic clash slated to happen between Maari and Vaalu on July 17, we asked you fans to vote for your favourite film between the two. And the results are here.

With over 100 films coming out in a year in Tamil film industry, two films releasing on the same date is not something new. But whenever two big films clash are slated at box office, more often than not either one of the films back out from competition. But that doesn’t seem to be the case for Dhanush’s Maari and Simbu’s Vaalu.

Come July 17, Vaalu will take on Maari at box office. So we decided to ask you guys to pick the most exciting film among the two. And your verdict is here. Fans voted in large numbers and have chosen Dhanush’s Maari over Simbu’s Vaalu. Dhanush-Kajal Aggarwal starrer Maari has received 52% of votes whereas Simbu’s Vaalu is just slightly behind with 48% of votes. When we started the poll, Simbu’s Vaalu was leading the race, leaving Dhanush’s Maari far behind. But looks like Dhanush fans have come out in large numbers and voted for Maari, making the film more awaited than Vaalu.

While Maari could prove to be a hattrick of success for Dhanush at box office after the success of VIP and Anegan, on the other hand Simbu’s Vaalu will finally hit the screens on July 17 after delay of over three years. Also, Vaalu is the first release for Simbu in last three years, so fans are eagerly expecting their favourite STR to make a rocking comeback on big screen. It would be really exciting to see this epic clash at box office on July 17.

The hot couple, after their high profile breakup, are getting back together to shoot a song

After waiting for three long years, Simbu fans will finally get to see his long delayed film Vaalu. Backed by his father T Rajendar, Vaalu stars Simbu, Hansika and Santhanam in lead role.

While shooting for the film back in 2012, Simbu and Hansika got close and became a couple. But before the film could hit the screens, the duo broke off their relationship, which made headlines all over the internet. Now as Vaalu is about to release in a little more than two weeks, the team is working to wrap up the shoot of the last song Vaathiyaru from the movie.

Sung by T Rajendar himself, the number was supposed to feature three yesteryear beauties Simran, Khusbu and Saroja Devi along side Simbu, but now we have learnt from a reliable source that only Hansika will feature opposite STR in this song. We hope that the team completes the song shoot on time and there are no further delays in the release date.

While the fans are raving Puli teaser, not many know that Vijay had second thoughts about signing the dotted the line

The teaser of Illayathalapathy Vijay’s 58th film, Puli, was released last week and has been applauded by one and all. The film directed by Chimbu Devan also stars Sridevi, Kiccha Sudeep, Shruti Haasan and Hansika.

While the fans are going gaga over this fantasy fiction flick, did you know that Vijay had almost declined the offer to act in Puli? It is being said that Vijay was doubtful to venture in a fantasy film as he has never done a film in that genre. So what made Vijay change his mind? Well, a little birdie tells us that it was his son Sanjay who convinced him to take up the film.

” When director Chimbu Devan first narrated the story, Vijay heard it with his son Sanjay. Initially, Vijay wasn’t sure if he should do the project as it had elements of fantasy and he’d never worked in this genre before,” said a source close to the film. ”As soon as Chimbu Devan left after narrating the script, it was Sanjay who convinced his father to accept the offer. Sanjay told Vijay that the he should do the film as it will make him proud,” the source added.

Well it looks like Vijay’s son had a huge role to play in Illayathalapathy’s decision to star in Puli. Will the gamble of venturing into a new genre benefit Vijay? We will have to wait and watch.

Come 17th of July and two good friends will be warring against one another at box office

A few years back, there was a tinge of animosity or lets say a cold war between two emerging stars of Kollywood – Simbu and Dhanush. But in last few years, these two actors have buried the hatchet and have become close to one another. In fact, Simbu also did a guest appearance in Dhanush’s National Award winning film Kaaka Muttai.

While Simbu has had no releases and has been waiting for Vaalu to hit screens, Dhanush has climbed up the ladder of success, having a golden run at box office. And now finally, Vaalu starring STR and Hansika is all set to release on July 17, which co-incidentally clashes with release date of Dhanush’s Maari. Though the two actors have been tweeting about each other’s film and seem to be cool with the box office clash, the fans are excited to see who wins this battle of box office.

While Dhanush has been riding high on the success of VIP and Anegan, Simbu fans are thrilled that their favourite star STR is coming back to the big screen after three years. At one end, Dhanush’s Maari is making all the right noise with terrific music by Anirudh and a mind blowing trailer, the buzz around Vaalu is also high as fans are eager to see how Simbu would fare in his comeback vehicle.

So, on July 17th, which film will would you love to see? Would it be Dhanush’s Maari or Simbu’s Vaalu? Vote!
